Distance Learning

Welcome! The Division of Graduate Professional Studies offers increasing numbers of graduate courses via distance learning, to meet the needs of our students who cannot or prefer not to attend classes on campus.  Currently the Division of Graduate Professional Studies offers the following graduate certificates and masters degrees entirely online:

Visit the Program Offerings page to find out the specifics regarding the requirements of these online programs.

Our distance learning (DL) courses are Internet-based, innovative and flexible. They are asynchronous, with no required day or time during which students must participate. They are presented using WebCT, a widely used course platform, and generally organized around our ten-week course schedule. Students have direct contact with their instructor and peers on a daily basis, using such tools the Discussions bulletin board, chat rooms, email, the assignments tool, and other features offered in our customized learning management system.

These pages have been designed to assist those interested in taking distance learning courses and to support those students currently enrolled in distance learning courses with us. This page is currently under construction and the following links will be available soon.

DL Introduction pages: Visit our DL Introduction pages to assess whether a distance learning course would be appropriate for you, and to learn more about our distance learning quality standards and course framework.

DL Resources pages: As a DL student, you are not alone! To find out about resources available to DL students, visit our DL Resources pages.

Student Services pages: As a student of our programs, you have access to a wide range of online Student Services.
